<H3>A Quote</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>

"I think that it's extraordinarily important that we in computer
science keep fun in computing.  When it started out, it was an awful
lot of fun.  Of course, the paying customer got shafted every now and
then, and after a while we began to take their complaints seriously.
We began to feel as if we really were responsible for the successful,
error-free perfect use of these machines.  I don't think we are.  I
think we're responsible for stretching them, setting them off in new
directions, and keeping fun in the house.  I hope the field of computer
science never loses its sense of fun.  Above all, I hope we don't
become missionaries.  Don't feel as if you're Bible salesmen.  The
world has too many of those already.  What you know about computing
other people will learn.  Don't feel as if the key to successful
computing is only in your hands.  What's in your hands, I think and
hope, is intelligence:  the ability to see the machine as more than
when you were first led up to it, that you can make it more."
